Maybe the knife landed near him and he picked it up right away before he got up. You're putting a lot of weight on "you can't hold onto something from a 15' drop" to dismiss everything, even though there were hundre

It seems he was just overly credulous. Yes, he was very Christian, but I imagine if he got some ancient text from China on how to transmute lead to gold he would give it a shot

It reminds me of "pont neuf"("new bridge" in French), which is the oldest bridge in Paris crossing the seine.

Is it too late to change the name from "new headless"? It won't be new forever, and then there will need to be a new new mode, or a differently named one that people think is older because it isn't the new mode.

Yes, my not so nice implication was that they aren't a real power user and it was PEBKAC. I usually try to be nicer but it's hard when someone is saying "X sucks because..."

Elvis was a singular talent. I feel like to consider a lineage "royalty of X", there need to be multiple members of the family who dominate the field. Not that that changes much about his sad story.

You can also have cached static instances(assuming immutability), eg Point.fromLonLat(0,0) can always return the same instance, whereas new Point(0,0) must allocate and return a new instance.

A lot of Boulder homes are relatively small because they were built in the 40s-60s for a population with much more modest means. So it isn't rare to see millionaires living in a 1300 SQ ft ranch style home, and driving EVs or riding ba

Perhaps a lot. I live in Boulder and a number of wealthy moms in my social group are all into zero waste, or minimizing waste to the point where they will pay $10-15/gallon for milk. It also helps to justify the price that the milk is

With 150,000 employees, you can write an article saying "Google employees say X ..." regarding pretty much any subject under the sun. So why was this particular article written, which refers to .002% of the company?

Probably easier just to decompile tiktok and insert some code which checks for a video at a certain known location controlled by you and plays it if it is present. And then surreptitiously install that app on her phone.

I just tried it and it doesn't really work. The reason it works for the CNN prompt is because chatgpt still gives you a fake headline if you just ask for one without all the prompt. With that full prompt I asked it to write a mean joke

Instead of a reference + north/east meters, how about two reference points, and then everything is referenced as polar coordinates from there, point A to point B being 0 degrees. My concern would be if the direction of north/east

I think that viewpoint comes from how shell scripts are used - many people write shell scripts, but once they reach a certain level of complexity, they reach for python or perl or some other "more real" language. So, people don&#x

Or if they read the policies of the venue and adhered to them, the play could go on. Saying "you can't do X at this venue" is not the same as saying "you must do X".

If you don't train to failure and know how to dump safely, or you always train with a spotter, you can get away with just a squat rack and bench. If you want more safety though you probably want a power cage.
